This week's post may seem like a bit of a cop out as I've not had any time for self-care this week but stick with me here. My latest self-care tip is to have a good moan. Seriously, don't bottle it all up. It wasn't until 8.30pm on Friday that I finally had some time… Continue reading Self-Care Sunday #19
My fave posts this week are full of stationery - shock horror! Enjoy :) I've been keeping a gratitude journal for a couple of months now and can totally relate to Natasha's post on the benefits.
